Treatment Approach
- Eclectic Therapy Draws from different therapeutic methods based on what fits each client best. It is flexible and personalized rather than following one single model.
- Existential / Humanistic Therapy Encourages people to explore meaning, freedom, and authenticity in their lives. It focuses on personal growth and living in alignment with one’s values.
- Feminist Therapy Addresses how gender roles, power, and social inequality affect mental health. It empowers clients to challenge limiting beliefs and systems.
- Interpersonal Therapy (IPT) A short-term approach focused on improving relationships and social support. It is often used for depression and grief.
- Neuropsychology Examines how brain function affects thinking, memory, and behavior. It often involves assessment and rehabilitation strategies.
- Psychodrama A group therapy that uses role-play and dramatization to process emotions. It helps clients gain perspective and release tension.
- Psychodynamic Therapy Explores unconscious thoughts and patterns that influence current behavior. It builds insight into how the past impacts the present.
Approach Description: Very eclectic - I bring a range of experience and training including psychodynamic psychotherapy, feminist therapy, attachment issues, relational therapy, couples therapy, positive psychology, and aspects of cognitive therapy.

I have practiced counseling and psychotherapy for 30 years and work with both individuals and couples. My social work background has always informed my work, and I have trained in a variety of modalities including psychodynamic, relational, cognitive and feminist therapy. I am also certified in Applied Positive Psychology and can incorporate life coaching into my practice. I have a conversational style and believe that a strong trusting relationship between clients and their therapist is essential to growth and healing. I do both long term and short term work, depending on the needs and goals of the clients. In my practice I have worked with people dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, loss and grief, and numerous other issues. I have a strong history working in the areas of violence against women, abuse and neglect, and I understand how these issues impact on the lives of individuals and couples.
